What are your favorite Fantasy series? Here are some of mine, in no particular order:
Harry Potter
Narnia
Wheel of Time
Sword of Truth
Circle of Magic
Wrinkle in Time
Percy Jackson and the Olympians
 
The fantasy series that I have read over and over again for almost 40 years is the series of 32 Dark Shadows novels written by Marion Ross. Team Barnabas or Team Quentin?! For me, it’s always been Team Barnabas! ❤️

I like the Cthulhu Mythos stories.

And I like the Wizard of Oz series.
 
Lord of the Rings
Harry Potter
Narnia
A Series of unfortunate Events
Twilight
Chrestomanci
Howl’s Moving Castle
Wheel of Time
 
A Wrinkle in Time
The Lord of the Rings
Chronicles of Narnia
 
Midkemia series by Raymond Feist

Sword of Truth Series by Terry Goodkind

Dresden Files by Jim Butcher

Women and Men of the Underworld by Kelley Armstrong
 
Wow - I’ve read about half of those (I bolded them). We must have similar taste - I’ll havta check into the others.
 
I think he took a different story line than what he originally had for the series…but now that he’s winding down the story line has improved again. His next book “At the Gates of Darkness” looks good. I have enjoyed all of Feist’s books…well…not all…I didn’t like “Farie Tale” at all…but the Midkemia series has kept me interested.

I have all the books in the series…I was introduced to Feist back in the 80’s…this year I started at the beginning and read all the books in sucession as I was thinking how disjointed the books had become…reading them one right after the other brought back a continuity in the story…I really enjoyed reading them again “for the first time.”
 
At the work library (there’s just gobs of books available to read, and then put back–there’s a lot of down time between calls), I just encountered the books of SM Stirling, and I’ve got to say I give them a recommend.

The Nantucket Series is pretty interesting, but I’m much more fascinated by the parallel series, the “Change” series. At least, so far.
 
The Silmarillion

The Lord of The Rings

The Chronicles of Narnia

The King of Elfland`s Daughter: by Lord Dunsany. A very “quiet” and old-fashioned story.

Pinocchio: by Carlo Collodi
